Why I can't use external library ray lib?

Question

I was trying to use external library ncurses, however I did not found throughout tutorials and tried the same with ray lib, but it doesn't work too(((. When my task.json is like this this error appears:

{
    "tasks": [
      {
        "type": "cppbuild",
        "label": "C/C++: clang++ build active file",
        "command": "/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/clang++",
        "args": [
          "-fcolor-diagnostics",
          "-fansi-escape-codes",
          "-g",
          "${file}",
          "-o",
          "${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}",
          "-lraylib",
          "/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/include"
        ],
        "options": {
          "cwd": "${fileDirname}"
        },
        "problemMatcher": ["$gcc"],
        "group": {
          "kind": "build",
          "isDefault": true
        },
        "detail": "Task generated by Debugger."
      }
    ],
    "version": "2.0.0"
}

 *  Terminal will be reused by tasks, press any key to close it.

But when it is like this: (I changed only this parts so I am showing only them)

        "command": "/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/include",
        "args": [
          "-fcolor-diagnostics",
          "-fansi-escape-codes",
          "-g",
          "${file}",
          "-o",
          "${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}",
          "-lraylib"
        ],

This error appears:

/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin -fcolor-diagnostics -fansi-escape-codes -g /Users/username/tutorial/main.cpp -o /Users/username/tutorial/main -lraylib
/bin/sh: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin: is a directory

Probably like this

"args": [
      "-fcolor-diagnostics",
      "-fansi-escape-codes",
      "-g",
      "-I/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/include"
      "${file}",
      "-o",
      "${fileDirname}/${fileBasenameNoExtension}",
      "-L/opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/lib"
      "-lraylib",
    ],

Use -I to say where the header files are located, use -L to say where the library files are located (here I guessing that they are in /opt/homebrew/cellar/raylib/5.0/lib), library options should go at the end.

If you are going to build using tasks.json it's important that you understand the different options you can give to g++.
